It notes Holy Cross at Rocky Comfort, DeQueen, Stamps, Prescott, Texarkana, and Foreman, the formation of the Diocese of Little Rock, and the revival of Catholic life under bishops and priests, including the 1920s unification of DeQueen territory and Hope mission, leading to the 1999 baptism and growth of the Catholic community in eleven counties.
